Administrative Review of Certain CorrosionResistant Steel Products from the Republic of Korea: 

Amended Final Results Calculation for All Others,’’

notice.

From the Republic of Korea: Notice of Court 

Decision Not in Harmony With Final Determination 

of Investigation and Notice of Amended Final 

Results, 83 FR 39054 (August 8, 2018). 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed for these amended final 

results in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.224(b). 

Assessment Rates 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 

Commerce has determined, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

amended final results of this review. 

In accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1), where Dongkuk reported 

the entered value of its U.S. sales, we 

calculated importer-specific ad valorem 

duty assessment rates based on the ratio 

of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for the examined sales to the 

total entered value of the sales for which 

entered value was reported. Where 

Dongkuk did not report entered value, 

we calculated the entered value in order 

to calculate the assessment rate. Where 

either Dongkuk’s weighted-average 

dumping margin is zero or de minimis 

within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), or an importer-specific 

rate is zero or de minimis, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties. 

For the companies which were not 

selected for individual review, we will 

assign an assessment rate based on the 

average of the cash deposit rates 

calculated for Dongkuk and Dongbu 

Steel Co., Ltd.5 The amended final 

results of this review shall be the basis 

for the assessment of antidumping 

duties on entries of merchandise 

covered by the amended final results of 

this review and for future deposits of 

estimated duties, where applicable. 

Commerce’s ‘‘automatic assessment’’ 

practice will apply to entries of subject 

merchandise during the POR produced 

by companies included in these final 

results of review for which the reviewed 

companies did not know that the 

merchandise they sold to the 

intermediary (e.g., a reseller, trading 

company, or exporter) was destined for 

the United States. In such instances, we 

will instruct CBP to liquidate 

unreviewed entries at the all-others rate 

if there is no rate for the intermediate 

company(ies) involved in the 

transaction. 

We intend to issue liquidation 

instructions for Dongkuk and the 

companies covered by the non-reviewed 

companies’ rate to CBP 35 days after 

publication of these amended final 

results of this administrative review. If 

a timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of the subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after May 27, 

2021, the date of publication date of the 

Final Results of this administrative 

review, as provided by section 

751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The cash 

deposit rate for each specific company 

listed above will be that established in 

the amended final results; (2) for 

previously reviewed or investigated 

companies, including those for which 

Commerce may have determined had no 

shipments during the POR, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the company 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this or an earlier review, 

or the original less-than-fair-value 

(LTFV) investigation, but the 

manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate 

will be the rate established for the most 

recently completed segment of this 

proceeding for the manufacturer of the 

merchandise; and (4) if neither the 

exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm 

covered in this or any previously 

completed segment of this proceeding, 

then the cash deposit rate will be the 

all-others rate of 8.31 percent 

established in the LTFV investigation.6

These deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 

certificate regarding the reimbursement 

of antidumping duties prior to 

liquidation of the relevant entries 

during this review period. Failure to 

comply with this requirement could 

result in Commerce’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of doubled antidumping duties. 

Administrative Protective Orders 

This notice also serves as a final 

reminder to parties subject to 

administrative protective order (APO) of 

their responsibility concerning the 

return or destruction of proprietary 

information disclosed under APO in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), 

which continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return or destruction 

of APO materials, or conversion to 

judicial protective order is hereby 

requested. Failure to comply with the 

regulations and terms of an APO is a 

violation which is subject to sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

amended final results of review in 

accordance with sections 751(h) and 

777(i) of the Act, and 19 CFR 351.224(e). 

Dated: July 15, 2021.

Background 

On July 25, 2018, Commerce 

published the antidumping duty (AD) 

order on citric acid and certain citrate 

salts (citric acid) from Belgium in the 

Federal Register.1 On September 3, 

2020, pursuant to section 751(a)(1) of 

the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 

Act), Commerce initiated an AD 

administrative review of the Order.2

During the course of this administrative 

review, Citrique Belge responded to 

Commerce’s questionnaire and 

supplemental questionnaires. On March 

13, 2021, Commerce extended the 

deadline for issuing the preliminary 

results of this review.3 For further 

details, see the accompanying 

Preliminary Decision Memorandum.4

Scope of the Order 

The merchandise covered by this 

Order includes all grades and 

granulation sizes of citric acid, sodium 

citrate, and potassium citrate in their 

unblended forms, whether dry or in 

solution, and regardless of packaging 

type. The scope also includes blends of 

citric acid, sodium citrate, and 

potassium citrate; as well as blends with 

other ingredients, such as sugar, where 

the unblended form(s) of citric acid, 

sodium citrate, and potassium citrate 

constitute 40 percent or more, by 

weight, of the blend. 

Citric acid and sodium citrate are 

classifiable under 2918.14.0000 and 

2918.15.1000 of the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), 

respectively. Potassium citrate and 

crude calcium citrate are classifiable 

under 2918.15.5000 and, if included in 

a mixture or blend, 3824.99.9295 of the 

HTSUS. Blends that include citric acid, 

sodium citrate, and potassium citrate 

are classifiable under 3824.99.9295 of 

the HTSUS. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience 

and customs purposes, the written 

description of the merchandise is 

dispositive. For a full description of the 

scope of the Order, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum.5

Methodology 

Commerce is conducting this review 

in accordance with section 751(a) of the 

Act. Export price has been calculated in 

accordance with section 772 of the Act 

and normal value was calculated in 

accordance with section 773 of the Act. 

For a full description of the 

methodology underlying our 

conclusions, see the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum. A list of the 

topics discussed in the Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is attached as an 

appendix to this notice. The Preliminary 

Decision Memorandum is a public 

document and is on file electronically

calculations performed in these 

preliminary results to parties in this 

proceeding within five days of the date 

of publication of this notice.6 Pursuant 

to 19 CFR 351.309(c), interested parties 

may submit case briefs not later than 30 

days after the date of publication of this 

notice. Rebuttal briefs, limited to issues 

raised in the case briefs, may be filed no 

later than seven days after the date for 

filing case briefs.7 Parties who submit 

case briefs or rebuttal briefs in this 

proceeding are requested to submit with 

each argument: (1) A statement of the 

issue, (2) a brief summary of the 

argument, and (3) a table of authorities.8

Executive Summaries should be limited 

to five pages total, including footnotes. 

Case and rebuttal briefs should be filed 

using ACCESS 9 and must be served on 

interested parties.10

Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.310(c), 

interested parties who wish to request a 

hearing must submit a written request to 

the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement

Commerce intends to issue the final 

results of this administrative review, 

including the results of our analysis of 

the issues raised in any the written 

briefs, no later than 120 days after the 

date of publication of this notice, unless 

otherwise extended.13

Assessment Rates 

Upon completion of the 

administrative review, Commerce shall 

determine, and U.S. Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 

antidumping duties on all appropriate 

entries. If the weighted-average 

dumping margin for Citrique Belge (i.e., 

the sole individually-examined 

respondent in this review) is not zero or 

de minimis (i.e., greater than or equal to 

0.5 percent) in the final results of this 

review, we will calculate importerspecific ad valorem assessment rates for 

the merchandise based on the ratio of 

the total amount of dumping calculated 

for the examined sales made during the 

POR to each importer and the total 

entered value of those same sales, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1). 

Where an importer-specific ad valorem 

assessment rate is zero or de minimis in 

the final results of the review, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate the appropriate 

entries without regard to antidumping 

duties.14 If a respondent’s weightedaverage dumping margin is zero or de

review, we will instruct CBP not to 

assess duties on any of its entries in 

accordance with the Final Modification 

for Reviews, i.e., ‘‘{w}here the weightedaverage margin of dumping for the 

exporter is determined to be zero or de 

minimis, no antidumping duties will be 

assessed.’’ 15

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by Citrique 

Belge for which the producer did not 

know its merchandise was destined for 

the United States, we will instruct CBP 

to liquidate unreviewed entries at the 

all-others rate if there is no rate for the 

intermediate company (or companies) 

involved in the transaction.16

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective upon 

publication of the final results of this 

administrative review for all shipments 

of the subject merchandise entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after the publication 

date of the final results of this 

administrative review, as provided by 

section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) The 

cash deposit rate for Citrique Belge will 

be equal to the weighted-average 

dumping margin established in the final 

results of this administrative review, 

except if the rate is less than 0.50 

percent, and therefore de minimis 

within the meaning of 19 CFR 

351.106(c)(1), in which case the cash 

deposit rate will be zero; (2) for 

previously reviewed or investigated 

companies not listed above, the cash 

deposit rate will continue to be the 

company-specific rate published for the 

most recently completed segment of this 

proceeding in which the company 

participated; (3) if the exporter is not a 

firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or in the investigation but the 

producer is, the cash deposit rate will be 

the rate established for the most recently 

completed segment of this proceeding 

for the producer of the merchandise; 

and (4) the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be the all-others rate of 19.30 percent, 

the rate established in the investigation 

of this proceeding.17 These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a preliminary 

reminder to importers of their 

responsibility under 19 CFR 

351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 

regarding the reimbursement of 

antidumping duties prior to liquidation 

of the relevant entries during this 

review period. Failure to comply with 

this requirement could result in 

Commerce’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of double antidumping duties. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

preliminary results in accordance with 

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i) of the Act, 

and 19 CFR 351.213(h)(1).
